The short answer
Leak detection locates hidden water leaks in plumbing supply lines, fixtures, and slabs before they cause greater damage or waste. Precision Plumbing serves Eugene, Springfield, and Lane County homeowners with methodical testing and repair recommendations when a high water bill, damp area, warm floor, or unexplained meter movement suggests water is escaping.
When to Call Us
Any one of these is worth a look. The earlier the cause is identified, the more repair options you usually still have.
01
A water bill rises without a change in usage
02
The water meter moves when all fixtures are off
03
Warm spots, damp flooring, or unexplained moisture appear
04
You hear water running with no fixture in use
05
Mold, musty odors, or water stains develop near plumbing
How the Job Goes
No mystery, no surprise invoice. Here is the order of operations.
01
Review the symptoms and isolate the plumbing system involved.
02
Use meter checks, pressure testing, and targeted diagnostics to locate the leak.
03
Explain the source, repair access, and the available solutions.
04
Complete the repair and confirm the system is holding pressure correctly.
Why It Matters
Hidden leaks can waste a surprising amount of water and damage framing, floors, finishes, or foundations before they become obvious. Finding the source early limits the repair scope and helps prevent repeat damage.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if I have a hidden water leak?
A moving water meter when all fixtures are off, a higher bill, damp materials, warm floors, or the sound of running water can all point to a hidden leak.
Can you detect a slab leak?
Yes. Precision Plumbing evaluates suspected leaks beneath or within a slab and explains the findings and repair options based on the location and plumbing layout.
Why is my water bill suddenly high?
A high bill can result from a hidden supply leak, a running toilet, irrigation issues, or a change in use. A focused inspection helps identify the source instead of guessing.
Do I need to open walls or floors to find a leak?
The goal is to locate the problem as precisely as possible before opening finishes. Some repairs require access, but accurate diagnosis helps keep that access targeted.
Can a small leak wait?
Even a small leak can worsen or cause hidden damage. Prompt diagnosis helps prevent water waste and gives you more control over the repair.
